First Aid Measures

Emergency procedures for chemical exposure incidents

Inhalation

Remove person to fresh air and keep comfortable for breathing. If not breathing, give artificial respiration. Get immediate medical advice/attention.

Symptoms: May cause drowsiness or dizziness. Material is destructive to tissue of the mucuous membranes and upper respiratory tract. Cough, shortness of breath, headache, nausea.

Skin contact

Thaw frosted parts with lukewarm water. Do no rub affected area. Remove contaminated clothing and shoes. In case of skin contact, wearing rubber gloves rub 2.5% calcium gluconate gel continuously into the affected area for 1.5 hours or until further medical care is available. Get immediate medical advice/attention.

Symptoms: Contact with the liquid the may cause cold burns/frostbite.

Eye contact

Remove contact lenses, if present and easy to do. Continue rinsing. Get immediate medical advice/attention. Immediately flush eyes thoroughly with water for at least 15 minutes.

Symptoms: Direct contact with the liquefied gas may cause severe and possibly permanent eye injury due to frostbite from rapid liquid evaporation.

Ingestion

Due to its physical form, exposure to this chemical is not likely. Do NOT induce vomiting. Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person. Rinse mouth out with water. Get immediate medical advice/attention.

Immediate Medical Attention

Get immediate medical advice/attention.

Medical Treatment

Treat symptomatically.

05

Firefighting Measures

Extinguishing media, specific hazards, and firefighter protection

Suitable media

Alcohol resistant foam. Carbon dioxide. Dry powder. Water spray. Use extinguishing media appropriate for surrounding fire.

Specific hazards

Contains gas under pressure; may explode if heated. Reacts with water, generates gases or heat.

Instructions

In case of fire: Evacuate area. Fight fire remotely due to the risk of explosion.

Firefighter Protection

Wear gas tight chemically protective clothing in combination with self contained breathing apparatus. For further information refer to section 8: "Exposure controls/personal protection".

06

Accidental Release Measures

Spill cleanup procedures, containment, and environmental protection

Emergency procedures

Evacuate unnecessary personnel. Ensure adequate air ventilation. May cause suffocation by reducing oxygen available for breathing. Do not breathe gas, fumes, vapor or spray. Only qualified personnel equipped with suitable protective equipment may intervene. Gas/vapor heavier than air. May accumulate in confined spaces, particularly at or below ground level.

Environmental

Avoid release to the environment.

Cleanup methods

Ventilate area.

Handling and Storage

Safe handling precautions, storage conditions, and workplace requirements

Handling

Do not handle until all safety precautions have been read and understood. Ensure good ventilation of the work station. Do not breathe fumes, gas, mist, spray, vapors. Wear personal protective equipment. Avoid contact with skin and eyes. Securely chain cylinders when in use and protect against physical damage.

Storage

Protect from sunlight. Do not expose to temperatures exceeding 50 °C. Keep container closed when not in use. Moisture sensitive. Store in dry, cool, well-ventilated area.

Hygiene

Handle in accordance with good industrial hygiene and safety procedures. Do not eat, drink or smoke when using this product. Always wash hands after handling the product.

08

Exposure Controls / PPE

Occupational exposure limits, engineering controls, and protective equipment

Engineering

Ensure good ventilation of the work station. Emergency eye wash fountains and safety showers should be available in the immediate vicinity of any potential exposure. Systems under pressure should be regularly checked for leakage. Oxygen detectors should be used when asphyxiating gases may be released. Gas detectors should be used when toxic gases may be released.

Hands

Protective gloves. 29 CFR 1910.138: Hand Protection.

Eyes

Chemical goggles or safety glasses. Face shield. 29 CFR 1910.133: Eye and Face Protection.

Respiratory

In case of inadequate ventilation wear respiratory protection. 29 CFR 1910.134: Respiratory Protection.

Skin/Body

Wear suitable protective clothing.
